SMU 23-5 (14-2) @ UCONN 16-11 (9-6) LIVE FROM the XL CENTER IN BEAUTIFUL HARTFORD, CT

2:00 PM ET / 1:00 PM CT ON CBS

I am praying that Bill Rafferty and Ian Eagle call this game.

KenPom predicts a 63-62 win (53% win probability)

I don't feel like blowing the "undefeated forever in revenue sports streak."

This game is all about limiting boat's effectiveness. He will get his points but if you force him into tough shots so he has a low percentage we will win. Uconn can't handle our inside game so their only chance is for their best player to have a rediculous night (of which he is very capable at home).

From CBS Sports:

Memphis cannot conquer SMU, loses its last big chance for a statement win.

The Tigers had the Ponies on their home floor, and they couldn't even come close to winning. A 66-57 loss to SMU drops Memphis to 17-11 in a season that's headed toward the NIT and something of a forgotten year.

It didn't help that Kedren Johnson fouled out with more than 18 minutes remaining in the game, in part because he was assessed a technical/fifth foul.

SMU is now 23-5, and although the American isn't stout, this team could get a No. 3 seed if it wins out.

Brimah is a good defensive big, but he is prone to picking up quick fouls. We need YM to go right at him and draw 2 quick ones.

This one is going to be awesome. Connecticut should have no problem getting up for this one. We need to be ready from the tip.

Go Mustangs!!!!

I'm on the fence. Will decide Sunday morning.

Anybody know which section is behind our bench?

I'm concerned about our energy. We never really woke up against Memphis (except Sterling who never sleeps and Nic in the last few minutes).

We need to come out high energy.

I blame the cold weather. :-)

We start every game slow. That is an issue. I still don't like that MK doesn't start.
